With Ray, we have got a good product and we are sure about its feat here,” said Suraj Manandhar, business head, Yamaha division at MAW Enterprises. According to him, the two-wheeler not only looks good, it is also economical with a mileage of 40 kpl on the streets of Kathmandu.   

The Yamaha Ray offers the best in class acceleration, easy handling and manoeuvrability and good fuel efficiency, added Manandhar. Other special features of this stylish machine include comfortable seat with smartly positioned grab bar, spacious under-seat storage, dynamic headlight, crystal lens panel, longer rear fender, stylish taillight, telescopic suspension, inner box and easy leg shield, among others. 

The new Yamaha scooter has a powerful 113 cc air-cooled four-stroke SOHC engine that can churn out a maximum power of 7.1 ps at 7,500 rpm and a peak torque of 8.1 nm at 5,000 rpm. Likewise, the engine’s intake/exhaust systems and new transmission settings have been optimized for performance in the traffic and road conditions of Nepal.
